We had a good time, even though we argued a lot! ;) I'm still waiting for her to write down her recipes so I can post about the other things we made.<BR/><BR/>Ryley- You could put whatever you want into this pie. Veggies would probably be great. Almost like a quiche.<BR/><BR/>You need to judge according to your oven. Mine is electric and isn't always too accurate. My Mom's oven is gas and everything bakes faster in it. Check the pie after about 50 minutes. When a toothpick comes out clean, it's done.<BR/><BR/>Short (dis)Order Cook- Oh my! I'm sorry! I too have lost some precious recipes in the same way. My grandmother couldn't read, so she never wrote anything down. There are so many thing that she used to make that no one can remember how to do. <BR/><BR/>Perhaps, if you know what region her she is from, you can search online and come up with a recipe that is close to hers.Susan @ SGCChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00156812413651058664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834264313759237349.post-41761986185671428932008-03-18T14:24:00.000-04:002008-03-18T14:24:00.000-04:00*sigh* This blog makes me think of lost things.In...*sigh* This blog makes me think of lost things.<BR/><BR/>In second grade my class put together a class cookbook made up of family recipes. My mother contributed my great-grandmother's easter pie recipe. She had a battered, hand-written copy of it in her files. For the cookbook, they typed it out neatly, so Mom got rid of the original version and various other family members relied on their class cookbook copies for the recipe. <BR/><BR/>Years passed. Grandmothers stopped hosting Easter. Mom stopped hosting Easter. The cookbooks were cheaply printed on regular paper. They were easy to forget about and throw away. Our copies were the only things that still had the family recipe. It was lost forver.<BR/><BR/>I've been looking to replicate Nonni's recipe ever since. I love seeing people's Easter pie recipes because of this.The Short (dis)Order Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510572788683143569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6834264313759237349.post-32577068289199581182008-03-18T13:50:00.000-04:002008-03-18T13:50:00.000-04:00OH MY GOSH!!!!!!
